With the Accessories of the vehicle starting to get abit crazy, it was time to upgrade one of the most key points of the vehicle, The suspension. Not only would we be lifting the already sagging body, but we would also be improving the ride quality and stability of the Jimny. Along with the Suspension kit, we also installed Wheel Spacers to help widen the wheel track and help counteract some of the change in centre of gravity from the rooftop tent.

should stay way from spacers and replace with offset wheels. its more reliable and saving weight.

@mattnelson8655 4 года назад

@@jay-fl4pv definitely. I have a new Jimny ordered andhave steel rims and tyres ready to put on. Just with the wheel offset and new 215 tyres I have gained 30mm in width each side. 5mm inside and 25mm outside. No need for spacers and in my country you have to pay to get spacers certified.

The New Jimny, a oldschool simple offroad vehicle with modern details! But still oldschool! Second shifter, driving 2L regularly, 4H for easy terrain and 4L for heavy duty! Body on frame! Its heavy hardcore compared to "moms big shopping SUVs"!! I would love to have one, I'd really do :) but money is too short at this moment :(

@olihaub 5 лет назад

Looks like a great kit. Only thing I would say is wheel spacers make baby jeases cry 😂. Seriously next time you do tyres get a set of negative offset rims. Much better and safer than wheel spacers! Don't have much experience with Gabriel shocks off road in Australia but I am interested to see how they hold up.

@Zapo9668 4 года назад

@Barry Foster I'm of the same opinion here. Yes they are something else to go wrong. However, if you installed them correctly and torqued them correctly. I cannot see any issues. Jimny is very thin, and when doing sand trails your wheels don't fit into the track, Spacers can help you a lot here.

@DavidTaylor-qn8fe 4 года назад

The widened track dimension looks good and dramatic but the disadvantage of wheel spacers is the greatly increased radial strain on the wheel bearings. Inspect frequently and use high quality grease.

@RoamOverlanding 4 года назад

Indeed, according to the maths the engineer told me there would be a 7% increase on bearing wear. A lot less than even driving through dirty water 👌🏻

@peterpontikos3786 5 лет назад

Keepin it simple is the key, being an owner of a 2019 Jimny myself, the problem of juggling CG, weight, aerodynamics always will come down to how it affects range. overlanding requires most importantly 'range autonomy' of 1000km plus, that's my dilemma

@dieters2008 5 лет назад

Hi Peter. I totally agree with your view. Done quite a bit of overlanding and I have learnt that big wide tyres are overrated (just my opinion on all I am saying here and it remains the free choice of the vehicle owner and what he or she wants to do with their vehicle), suspension kits are a personal decision and I only do that on my vehicles if the manufacturer has an authorised brand that has zero effect on the warranty if the vehicle is new. If it's an older (for example) out of warranty vehicle you can let your imagination run wild, haha. A friend and his wife and another couple, both in their older shape Jimny's, did an overland "excusrsion" from Cape Town up the East coast all the way to Nacala, Mozambique. Then eventually headed west to Pilansberg then into Botswana all the way through Namibia back home...their "upgrades" were standard size all terrain tyres, roof rack and an additional spare tyre. Yes...had some challenges...but they did it.

@peterpontikos3786 5 лет назад

@@dieters2008 I concur Dieter; tyres, weight awareness and long range. The great insight of R.A.Bagnold of the LRDG is a useful compass for efficiency and simplicity, let alone allowing us today to have vehicles that can withstand hostile terrain and climate

@HammerRocks 5 лет назад

You didn't mention it on your video, so you could have easily done it off-video, but I hope you got a wheel alignment after your suspension upgrade. With the new lift, it looks like it could do with bigger tyres. I agree with everyone else's comments about ditching the wheels spacers.

@RoamOverlanding 5 лет назад

I did take it for wheel alignment 👍🏻 I’m quite happy with the wheel spacers, I feel like it helps make the ride abit more sturdy 👍🏻 the extra wear on the bearings is minimal in comparison to the benefits of the stability

Hi!, I’m about to get my brand new Jimny JB74 and I’d like to know which would be the largest tire size that can be mounted on a stock Jimny without causing some rubbing? My options for now are the BFG A/T K02 215/75, 235/75 or the 30”x9.5”. In the case of lifting it, how much will I require? Thanks a lot and congratulations on your videos!

@craigsparks1442 4 года назад

Nice boytjie... eventually put proper shocks and coils in. That sagging is a problem with stock Jimny coils, I thought they would have improved them with the new Jimny

@frumpadumpf5173 4 года назад

Love your content! I think it's agreeable to say that the Jimny is pretty much unstoppable. Adding a lift kit certainly will help with ground clearance and suspension travel, but I'm wondering if you remove the anti roll bars for off roading, how much actual gain in performance will you get? There will be more articulation but can it be too much with the lift kit installed and anti roll bars disconnected that it negatively impacts the off road capabilities instead? Based on the terrains you traverse.

I'd warn you about wheel spacers, not sure about the new one, but the axle design is very similar to the old Jimny, and the 30mm spacers which where very popular on that model where known to reduce wheel bearing life dramatically (like

@RoamOverlanding 5 лет назад

I do definitely feel a marked improvement in stability of the vehicle, and wouldn’t find the spacers necessary if I didn’t have the tent on the roof. However the affect on the center of gravity is noticeable, hence I will continue to use the spacers as long as I have the tent on. According to the maths that Des Sol did, it would increase bearing wear by 7% where as driving through dirty water while off-roading would increase bearing wear by anywhere up to 50%

In Australia wheel spacers are considered to be dangerous and are therefore illegal.

@phillipjacobs7975 5 лет назад

Your Jimny looks great!!! But the guys at Suzuki used an impact wrench to tighten your wheel nuts. Usually it puts a lot of strain on the studs and rims and becomes a safety hazard. Wheels should be tightened by using a wheel spanner and your own power. See if you can take a wheel off... bet you will struggle. Remember this when you have deflated and debeaded a tyre while in an obstacle.

@RoamOverlanding 5 лет назад

Hey Phillip, they did set the torque on the tool to around 110nm, and since then I have had the wheels and spacers manually rechecked and retightened 👍🏻
